Course and race format details: Long races use the North-South Trailway and other named loops, with a mix of single-track and wider trail sections, rolling terrain, and lakeside views framed by loblolly pines and fall foliage. Aid stations are placed every 2.5 miles on long-distance events; the 50K has drop bag access at start/finish every 10 miles. The Last One Standing Gauntlet follows a backyard-ultra format with a new loop each hour and the loop distance increasing every eight hours; runners must finish each loop before the next bell. The Last Rucker Standing uses the same hourly format with a weighted ruck (30 lb for men, 20 lb for women) and a field cap.
Logistics and support: Packet pickup is at the Lake Bastrop South Shore Park Pavilion. Registered runners have access to timing, stocked aid stations, medical support, race photography, and a finisher medal and race shirt (shirt guaranteed if registered by Sep 15). Non-registered spectators and support crews must pay the park entry fee. The event has no refunds; transfers are at the race director’s discretion. In severe weather the event may be moved, postponed, or modified; decisions are made in advance for participant safety. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
